RTV owners may be managing a sprawling Texas ranch, navigating a heavy-duty construction site, taking care of daily chores around the property, or any of a dozen other possibilities. No matter what, your Kubota RTV is built to handle the workload. It faces mud, dust, brutal sun, and constant wear and tear day in and day out. While the engine and chassis are designed to take a beating, your factory seats are often the first things to show signs of age, cracking, and tearing under pressure.
At Black Mountain All Terrain, we understand that protecting your utility vehicle is protecting your investment. That is why we sell these premium, custom-fit Kubota RTV full-size seat covers. Engineered for maximum durability and built to survive the toughest environments, these covers bring military-grade strength directly to your machine.
To help you get a flawless, wrinkle-free fit right in your own garage, Kyle from Black Mountain All Terrain has put together a comprehensive, step-by-step installation video. Below, we break down exactly what you will learn from the video and how you can transform your RTV’s interior in just a few minutes with minimal hand tools.
Watch the Walkthrough: Kubota™ RTV Full-Size Seat Cover Installation
In our latest video guide, we use a Kubota RTV-X1140 to demonstrate the full installation process. However, if you own an RTV 900, 1100, or 1120, you’re in luck, because the front seats across all of these full-size models are completely identical, meaning this step-by-step walkthrough will work perfectly for you, whichever vehicle you have.
What You'll Learn: A Step-by-Step Breakdown
The video takes all the guesswork out of the installation process, dividing the project into quick, manageable sections:
1. Mastering the Driver’s Side Setup
The driver’s side installation is designed to be straightforward and requires no tools at all. You will learn how to:
Properly slide the premium bottom cover around the seat adjustment slide bar to ensure unhindered operation.
Firmly position the heavy-duty, military-grade zippers at the rear of the seat cushion.
Locate the built-in webbing strap and plastic buckle underneath the seat, snapping it closed and removing all slack for a tight, shift-free fit.
Slide the backrest cover effortlessly over the upright cushion, positioning the zipper neatly out of sight at the bottom rear.
2. Upgrading the Passenger Side Bottom Cushion
Unlike the driver's side, the passenger's bottom cushion needs to be temporarily removed from the frame to get that perfect fit. Kyle demonstrates how to:
Easily pull the factory cotter pins, rotate the seat forward, and slide the cushion off the vehicle.
The Pro-Tip for Fabric & Foam: Because our covers are precision-built for a tight fit, Kyle explains how to work with the materials: don't be afraid to firmly tug on the heavy-duty fabric and press the seat foam to get rid of wrinkles.
Realign the bracket pins with the vehicle frame and safely reinsert the cotter pins.
3. Securing the Passenger Side Backrest
For the final piece of the front cabin, you’ll only need one tool: a 12mm wrench. The video guides you through:
Removing the four specific bolts from the base of the seat support frame (without separating the cushion itself from its frame).
Sliding the seat cover over the backrest, seamlessly lining up the pre-cut, reinforced slots with the factory seat supports.
Zipping the bottom track securely and bolting the completed backrest right back into the front frame of the vehicle.
The Black Mountain All Terrain Difference
Every single component, track, zipper, and piece of fabric that goes into our utility vehicle seat covers is 100% made in the United States. Better yet, they are proudly stitched together by American citizens right here in the great state of Texas. We stand by our work so completely that all of our seat covers come backed by a Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee.
Because our covers are designed for a snug, secure fit, we always remind our customers: please do not alter or cut your seat cover to make it fit. If you ever run into a tight spot during your installation, skip the scissors and give our team a call. We are always ready to help.
